Josh Gallagher and his band will perform a benefit concert for Cambria Alliance EMS from 7 to 9 p.m. Saturday at the Oriental Ballroom, 1078 N. Hemlock St., Gallitzin.

The event is a fundraiser for the organization to help it cover the expense of a new ambulance that will replace two older vehicles.

“We’re trying to find ways to bring in money to buy these sorts of things and the board came up with the idea of having a concert with Josh and the money would help with the down payment on the ambulance,” said James Effinger, manager of Cambria Alliance EMS. “With Josh’s popularity, we thought we could bring in a fair amount of people.”

He said with Gallagher being a Cresson native, it seemed like a good fit to have him perform.

“He grew up here, so he jumped on it right away,” Effinger said.

“He’s also been helping us to promote it on social media.”

Gallagher said he’s excited to come home and help raise money for the new ambulance.

“I love coming back and doing stuff like this and I like to help anywhere I can,” he said.

“The EMS is just a few blocks from where I grew up and I passed it all the time. To come back and help out and give these guys a hand, it means a lot to us.”

The show will be an hour and a half straight through, and Gallagher said he works loosely with a set list, but tends to mix things up when on the stage.

“We’re going to have a good time and see if we can get some money for these guys,” he said.

In addition, two Penn Cambria High School students have been selected to perform a song with Gallagher on stage.

A meet-and-greet will be held following the show.

Effinger added that this is the biggest fundraiser Cambria Alliance EMS has done and will likely ever do.

“The need is so great for us, so we really need the community to rally to help us out,” he said.

Beverages will be available for purchase.

Tickets are $35 for general admission and $50 for front row reserved seating. A reserved table of eight is available for $400.

The Cresson native was a finalist in late 2016 on NBC’s “The Voice.” He has a new music video on CMT as part of the network’s “12 Pack Countdown” this week, and it finished first.

Viewers voted for their favorites, which get into heavy rotation. The video, which premiered Tuesday, can be found on TV during new music hours 9 a.m., 8 p.m. and 1 a.m. daily. It’s also available online at cmt.com/video-clips

Results were revealed on the countdown show at 8 p.m. Fridays.

“How Bout You” was up against some heavy hitters, including Blake Shelton (“I Lived It”), Jason Aldean (“You Make It Easy — Episode 3”) and Tim McGraw and Faith Hill (“The Rest of Our Life”). It’s the story of a man who tries to put up a good front after a bad breakup. He drinks too much, watches TV alone in the middle of the night and wonders who his ex is with.

Cold feet before a big wedding, booze with a broken heart and “bless-your-heart” attitudes toward those with no problems … it all exists in the latest round of songs by Tenille Arts, Josh Gallagher and Jenny Tolman. They are the newest acts joining the CMT Artist Discovery program.

In Josh Gallagher’s “How Bout You” music video, the go-to cure for a breakup is a night out with friends (and lots of booze). A glowing Nashville skyline at night serves as Gallagher’s co-star in the video. The Pennsylvania native has lived in the Tennessee capital since 2014. He was among the final four finalists on The Voice season 11, and Garth Brooks is already a fan. “This kid,” Brooks said of Gallagher on the show, “as soon as he opens his mouth — you believe him. If I’m a manager, if I’m a producer, if I’m a record label — that’s the guy I want because he has the career in front of him.” Gallagher’s debut album is in the works.
